4/1

Soldier's Call gelding who has responded well to the application of blinkers, posting a career best when winning 7-runner maiden (10/11) at Musselburgh (7.1f, good to firm) 12 days ago, quickening clear entering final 1f. Can feature again.

Gold Medallist¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Edward Greatrex| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 71

5/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 80/1, bit below form eighth of 16 in nursery at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) 13 days ago, the faster surface offering an excuse. Proven on this much slower ground so bounce back certainly possible.

Form: 29348

4/5

Belardo gelding who took a step forward second time up when second of 7 in novice at Epsom (7f, good to firm, 4/1) 13 days ago. Yard continue in form and he's a big player if handling underfoot conditions.

Form: 32

IMPERIAL TROOPER built on his debut effort when second in a 7-runner novice at Epsom 2 weeks ago and he holds sound claims of going one place better provided underfoot conditions don't pose any fears. Musselburgh-scorer Toy Soldier and Gold Medallist can provide chief resistance.
